Diamond Wire Sawing
Diamond wire sawing allows almost any large concrete or masonry structure to be cut where other methods are not feasible. It is an ideal tool for cutting and removing reinforced concrete, such as bridge decks, jetties, columns or beams.
Diamond wire sawing is particularly useful when extremely thick and/or awkward shapes need cutting.
Using this technique, a diamond-infused wire is fed through a sequence of guide pulleys and passed through or around the section of concrete that needs cutting and then formed into a loop. The wire loop is then pulled continuously through the concrete section until the cut is accomplished.
Using high frequency electric or hydraulic equipment, this is the fastest way of cutting heavily reinforced concrete.
